- the power conversion device 12 i.e., if implemented as an inverter
- Such an implementation may be prevalent, for example, in a hybrid or electric vehicle. It is recognized that the high DC voltage may exceed 400V.
- a high voltage bus 16 e.g., +HV and ⁇ HV electrically couples the power source 14 to the power conversion device 12 and provides the high DC based voltage to the power conversion device 14 .
- a chassis ground 18 is electrically connected to the power conversion device 12 and to the high voltage bus 16 for grounding the power conversion device 12 while receiving the high DC voltage.
- the chassis ground 18 establishes a ground to earth.
- the chassis ground 18 is coupled to a conductive element and to earth via wheels of the vehicle.
- the power conversion device 12 is generally configured to measure (or determine) an impedance (or leakage resistance) (e.g., as represented by resistances Rp and Rn) between the high voltage bus 16 and the chassis ground 18 to determine if the measured impedance is within a sufficient safety isolation range while the power conversion device 12 receives the high DC voltage.

- the power conversion device 12 may be required to undergo hi-pot testing which serves to electrically over-stress the same. In addition, the purpose of the hi-pot test is to ensure that the power conversion device 12 is properly isolated between the chassis ground 18 and other nodes.
